They should have made it 5000

= 8 things

I think the second joystick was a mistake. The control scheme of the original was fine.

Even though Ms. Pac-man may be the technically superior game, I have more fun playing Pac-Man for some reason.

I'm feeling a bit crazy stuck at home. Wish this would start sooner.

Spikes Peak, Draconian, Adventures of Tron, Reactor

Warlords was a big hit with my kids They also liked: Dragonfire, Sneak'n'Peek, Beamrider

I like this game

Atlantis, Seaquest and Dolphin are all using "official" score challenges as originally created by the publisher. For the ones I had to create, I tend to go with something near the median score achieved by the HSC.

This space reserved for archiving past challenges

I would like to host a new sort of challenge, somewhat related to the high score challenge, but distinct. You will not be competing for the high score, but against a predetermined challenge score. I have always loved the Activision Patch challenges, and wish that something like that existed for the rest of the library. Now it can! Each month I will spotlight a group of games centered around a theme. I will set a challenge score for each game. Anyone who reaches that score will earn a virtual badge that I will add to the gallery. Badges can only be earned during the month that game is spotlighted. February Spotlight Challenge: H20 You have until midnight February 29 to earn these badges. Game settings are all at 1/b/b Atlantis: 125k Seaquest: 50k Dolphin: 80k Bermuda Triangle: 15k Fathom: 500

is it better to clear the rivets in vertical columns, or to work across row by row?

This is one of the games I've been playing this month. Just got 156,550

I'm a Jabba the Hutt fan, so my Atari Game would be "Star Wars: ROTJ Jabba's Palace" Battle of Wits: a simon says type game where you have to repeat back the pattern, when you inevitably fail, you fall through the trap door to the rancor Rancor Stage: Evade the chasing Rancor, while throwing rocks to try and drop the gate down on top of it. (watch out for little alien rats and spiders too) Sail barge: swing from deck to deck over the saarlac pit, lightsabering the enemies into it, while dodging their lasers

I imagine this would be better with paddles. Keyboard is almost unplayable.

wow, another week where I played but forgot to post my score. I need to stop waiting till Sunday to post, because that doesn't seem to be a reliable strategy.

Forgot to post my score! I had been holding off trying to get the patch, but the closest I got was 73,650

a very simple rule of thumb for remembering which way to go: always take the path of most resistance. If there's a wall to blow up, or a spider to shoot, that's the right path.

3800 3 medals

I improved my Pressure Cooker score, but forgot to upload it. oh well.

On round 3 I got the easiest blueprint ever. All the pieces went into the houses in sequential order, but I still managed to run out of time collecting them!
